Under the rust she’d touched, there was that distinctive midnight blue that so many of these Z/28s had been painted with.
Which is not how rust works.
And on the right side of that handprint was the smear of blood from Jenna’s cut.
Until it wasn’t
this story was something!
it wasn’t really what i expected hearing grad a revenge story with a blood thirsty car, but in many ways this was even better then what i expected.
i read a while novel by this author before and didn’t love it but this story worked better for me.
it was very well timed and had an interesting story line going from introduction to last sentence.
i enjoyed how the horror/supernatural elements were woven into the story.
this story was an interesting take on „getting over“ something or a different version of „getting revenge“.
and while this entire story could have been told without the supernatural elements, it was interesting to have them included.
i enjoyed it and thing it’s a great quick read that gives aber of a spooky factor more so than horror.

Fun little short story about a woman and a haunted Camaro. I'm always amazed at how much character this author can squeeze into short stories. Loved the ending.
